bigugli Posted December 11, 2009 Report Share Posted December 11, 2009 We used to make wads of cash clearing off cottage roofs up in Haliburton, decades back, when fewer people were as eager to open their cottages in winter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Still in my 30's, so not too old by some standards ) My kid brother jumped off the roof thinking the snow would cushion the fall. It was messy Ouch. There was so much snow then, that their was really only like a 4 ft drop to the top of the pile below. Lots of fun!...no injuries Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
singingdog Posted December 12, 2009 Report Share Posted December 12, 2009 My deck looks a bit like that, except you can't see the table anymore, and the snow is up to the top of the deck railing. We went from virtually no snow on Tuesday, to head-high snowbanks yesterday morning. It is definitely going to slow the ice down, with no really cold nights forecast in the next few days.

lew Posted December 12, 2009 Report Share Posted December 12, 2009 The Mrs. and I are heading up to Yonges Point, north of Peterboro in an hour, sure hope the snow conditions are better there than Haliburton & surrounding areas. Parka, boots, bags of salt & shovel are already packed though......just in case Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
